A standing shell is much appreciated as an aid for disabled children and youths. However, applying the standing shell manually and raising the child in it can be very strenuous for the caregiver. But with the right lifting aids, these problems can be avoided.
We recommend the use of a lift and sling, for example SilhouetteSling, for lifting the child to the standing shell. For convenient access when it is time to lift the child out of the shell, SilhouetteSling is left inside the shell while the child is standing.
Vest for StandingShell is used during the actual raising operation and is placed outside the standing shell when the child is lying down, then connected to a patient lift. We recommend one of Liko’s overhead lifts or the mobile lift Golvo. The raising is accomplished securely and controlled by patient lift.
Australian Standards have been developed to ensure equipment meets recognised safety and reliability criteria. To achieve this status, equipment must pass a series of tests in which it is put under difficult conditions that are designed to be similar to those that the child or adult may face when the equipment is used. For example, wheelchairs are tested for safhas gained Australian Standard acceptance, it provides a sense of satisfaction and reassurance that it is safe to be used and will do the job.
